Let the training begin! Get into the lake as often as you can before August 9. Not only will you improve your lake-swimming skills, but the hours you put in now will make you calm and collected on Swim Day. But, training in a pool is also important, especially when the lake is too cold. Remember though, pool swimming and lake swimming are very different, and nothing beats training in the lake.
